This is a vulcanised black rubber mould of two 40mm scale semi-flat infantrymen that comes in two parts that can be assembled and then you pour the preferred metal into it and allow it to cool.
Pikemen are anti-cavalry units that can make it extremely hard for cavalry to engage them as they present a wall of spears. Officers were responsible for maintaining order and discipline in an army.
The Irish Wild Geese moulds, the French Regiments 1750 and the Karoliner are the same moulds. S901, F901 & I901 are the same mould supplied with a label with a picture appropriate to that regiments colour scheme, the exception is i903 which has an alternative infantry solder instead of the pike man.
Due to older packaging, some paint information is incorrect, we do not stock Molak paint and advise all customers to use the better quality Vallejo acrylics instead.
The common paints to use are: Scarlet (code av817), Flat Green (Code av968), Hull Red (av985), Silver (av997), Light Brown (av929) and Black (av950) and White (av951).
This product is not suitable for children under the age of 14.
Active poses for an attacking/advancing unit. The officer also available in 903. The musketeer can be converted to a pikeman by simply putting a piece of wire in the mould where the musket should form and he will them cast with open hands to take a pike. May require some cleanup but usually works well. Both figures cast very well and consistently with possible need for a runner at the tip of the bayonet and tip of the sword.
the officer's posture is quite strange (very thin soulder)
